gasoline will aswell but not asmuch, put gassoline on one hand then acetone on the other and see what irritates more. As well it can cause leaks in hoses

Thermaltake big water kit

if you are going to jump into water cooling its too time consuming and expensive to buy a kit. its better on your part to mix and match products cause 1) wont be any harder to put together 2) will perform better 3) will be cheaper

Antec TruePower 2.0 series

the reason i dont like the the dual railed for a SLi rig is because then the rig is asking for alot of power out of the PSU, and if one rail is insufficiant then the whole thing goes to hell. maybe dual rail would be better under very low load, but once you get to high loads i wouldnt trust it.

both are dead quiet, seasonic is quieter. Both are very stable, seasonic is a little more efficiant. Forton is cheaper, and although its called 500W its really 460W. that said id get and have gotten the forton its a much better buy. if you need to extra power you'd be smart to pick up a...
